Chapter 6: I Don't Even Trust Myself, Do You?

Shisui looked excited, but Itsuki's expression remained indifferent.

Anyone who had stared at these eyes for years would no longer be excited.

This attitude gradually calmed Shisui down.

"Aren't you excited?"

"Excited about what?" Itsuki said lazily. "With peace here and no wars, there's not much difference between a Mangekyou Sharingan and a three-tomoe Sharingan."

Shisui was stunned again, then he smiled with relief.

"Itsuki, are you satisfied with the current state of Konoha, no, the ninja world?"

Itsuki looked at Shisui as if he were an idiot. "Are you satisfied with the current state?"

That kind of question didn't deserve an answer; figure it out yourself!

Shisui fell silent immediately.

After a while.

"Itsuki, do you trust me?"

Itsuki looked suspiciously at the suddenly serious Shisui. "What kind of nonsense is this?"

Are you starting again?

Do you need me to knock you out again?

He scratched his arm and looked at Shisui strangely. "No."

"What... I'm your brother! Your real brother!" Shisui said, both angry and amused. "Usually, you can mess around however you want, but now, I'm serious. I have something very important to tell you."

Shisui had made up his mind.

Itsuki, who had the Mangekyou Sharingan, had the right to know about the village and the Uchiha clan.

No!

He should have known in the past!

Itsuki should have known something, given his strength and position.

Even if he didn't want to know, there would have been people who would have told him, intentionally or unintentionally.

Now, Shisui was going to tell him everything in detail.

Sorry, my playful brother, your simple and carefree life is about to end.

This is also a form of protection for you.

"I'm being serious!" Itsuki pouted. "I just don't trust you."

"Itsuki!"

Shisui's voice grew stern.

"Alright, don't talk for a moment!" Itsuki waved his hand. "You asked if I trusted you, now let me ask you, do you trust me?"

Shisui was stunned and immediately said, "Of course I trust you. I'm your brother, and you're my brother!"

"Really?"

"No kidding!"

"How about we reenact the four-tomoe incident?"

"... Can we not bring up the four-tomoe thing?"

"Apologize!"

"I've been apologizing ever since I got home."

"Fine!" Itsuki didn't say much more. He immediately took out a cup, poured some powder into it in front of Shisui, and then pushed it toward him.

"Please!" Itsuki made a gesture of invitation. "Since you trust me, drink it."

"What's this?"

Shisui frowned.

"Medicine for constipation," Itsuki said lazily. "Of course, if it's for hemorrhoids, well... you know the consequences."

Shisui glared at Itsuki but didn't hesitate to pick up the tea. "I said I trust you. We're brothers."

After saying that.

He tilted his head back and drank it all in one go.

"Wow!"

Itsuki clapped his hands twice and said in surprise, "You really... aren't you afraid I poisoned it?"

"Although Tsunade-sensei didn't teach me much, since she dares to call herself my teacher, with her personality, she must have taught me something."

Shisui smiled slightly and said firmly, "I said we're brothers... um!"

"Bang!"

Before he could finish his sentence, Shisui collapsed.

His head hit the ground first, and his butt stuck up.

The pose was graceful and full of allure.

Itsuki couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Looking at the unconscious Shisui, he sighed helplessly.

"Trust me?"

"You actually trust me?"

"Who gave you that confidence?"

"Could it have been me?"

"Hehe, let me tell you, my foolish older brother, I don't even trust myself, and you trust me?"

"By the way, from childhood to now, I've lost count of how many times I've tricked you, and you still trust me?"

"Stupid!"

"Stupid to the extreme!"

"Although you're at home right now."

Itsuki kept shaking his head and sighing.

No wonder in the original story, Uchiha Shisui's end was suicide!

Shisui of the Body Flicker!

It's not just because of his powerful eye technique but also because of his recognition of his ninjutsu.

Too simple-minded!

Trusting others too much.

This is extremely fatal.

In the ninja world, where does so much trust come from?

Even if that person is a blood relative!

The ninja world's number one filial son even killed his parents.

Such examples are not uncommon in the ninja world.

At this moment, a voice sounded in Itsuki's mind.

[Task: Take Down Uchiha Shisui!]

[Task Completed!]

[Task Reward: Increased Eye Power]

[Eye Power: Level 6 (33%→35%)]

It's here!

The smile on Itsuki's face deepened.

He rubbed his chin and muttered, "Eye power only increased by 2%? Given Shisui's strength, it shouldn't be. As expected, because of my relationship with Shisui, the task difficulty was too low, so the reward was also low. Fortunately, I issued a task a long time ago. That task will surely give me a huge reward."

The scene flashed.

A new task appeared.

[Achieve Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan!]

This was a task Itsuki had set up early on.

This was also Itsuki's golden finger.

A task system.

However.

Itsuki's task system is different from other task systems.

It has two forms.

Cause and effect!

Effect before cause!

Itsuki can set tasks for himself, and the system will reward Itsuki based on the task's difficulty.

This is cause and effect!

The reward for completing the task can also be specified in a particular attribute.

For example, this time, Itsuki set the task of [Take Down Uchiha Shisui], and the specified reward was to increase eye power.

In the end, his eye power increased by 2%.

If the reward direction is not specified, the reward will be slightly higher, but the reward items will be randomly distributed.

No one knows which aspect will be rewarded.

Itsuki's certain aspect was intentionally strengthened.

The other form is to get the reward first, and the system will issue tasks based on the reward.

Itsuki rarely chooses this because of the high uncertainty.

No one can be sure if this will involve something or someone.

Too many surprises!

However, Itsuki's golden finger is a comprehensive evaluation system.

It will reward based on task difficulty.

It will also issue tasks based on the reward amount.

If you think it's just that simple, congratulations, you're doomed.

You also need to consider your strength, the environment, and even the state of the person involved.

Just like this task, [Take Down Uchiha Shisui].

Itsuki's strength was not inferior to Shisui's, and they were blood brothers, which made it easier for Itsuki to 'take down' Shisui.

Considering Shisui's character and Itsuki's usual behavior, the task's difficulty was slightly increased.

The final result was that Itsuki took down Shisui, a Mangekyou Sharingan wielder, and the reward was only a 2% increase in eye power.

If the target were Uchiha Fugaku, the increase would be at least 20%.

At least!

When Itsuki, who was still young, discovered this rule, he immediately started setting tasks.

He could perform two tasks simultaneously.

One as a regular task to continuously improve himself.

The other was the always pinned task [Achieve Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan].

This task was set by Itsuki when he was three years old.

At that time, Itsuki had just come into contact with ninjas; he wasn't even a ninja himself, and his Sharingan hadn't awakened.

Therefore, Itsuki could already imagine.

When he completes this task, he will receive an extremely rich reward.

If he loses, he'll work hard!

If he wins, he gets a day tour of the Yuhhi family!
